I am sorry for the nights full of screaming Done deals pulled from my head Dragged down in asunder Skies of thunder If only I could find the fear binding Tearing out my insanity Hello baby, I’m not ready For the task given to stay alive Somewhere inside I hear the dead pleading For one more chance Swallow your pride I’m the one needing A loving glance Are you unaware I’m crying Trying to stay afloat I want to see how far my blood goes Does anyone truly know The ache hides from my eyes Too shy to appear outside I wish I could switch places A different face Maybe I’m tired Maybe I’m not thinking Maybe I’m in dire Need of help from sinking Maybe I’m dead Maybe I’m not here anymore Maybe I’m gone Locked behind closed doors |

I have spent time trapped behind those closed doors. I am deeply sorry for anyone else who finds themselves there. Even when you don't believe that things could ever change, it is true. Even when you cannot see any light, it is there. Thank you for sharing such depths. |
